Concordia Middle School Art & Theatre Club to Perform "The Con'Sequences of Ordinary" on Saturday

North Central Kansas residents will have a chance to see a new group of local thespians perform on stage at the Brown Grand Theatre in downtown Concordia this weekend.

The new Concordia Middle School Art & Theatre Club will present, "The Con'Sequences of Ordinary," on Saturday, May 6th at 2 pm.

The club was formed by middle school students Katarina Howell, Kyndel Moeskau, Tia Strait and Kylie Urban.  Tia told KNCK News she had an interest in creating an art group after school.  After learning that Katarina was interested in starting her own middle school theatre troupe, Tia says they decided to combine the two ideas together.

Their first production is "The Con'Sequences of Ordinary," a show written by Kristina Frost, a member of the Brown Grand Players and an Instructor of Sociology/Criminal Justice at Cloud County Community College in Concordia.   Frost's play was originally performed by the Brown Grand Players in 2016.

The Concordia Middle School Art & Theatre Club has done nearly all of the work involved in bringing the play to life.

The play is directed by Kylie Urban, a sixth grade student at Concordia Middle School.  She told KNCK News she's most excited to see the audience's reaction to the show.

Tickets to the show are $5, while students and children are admitted free.

Concessions will also be available.

This weekend's performance is sponsored by the Brown Grand Players.  Whitney Jones with the Brown Grand Players says she's thrilled to find a new generation discovering a love for live theatre.

The Brown Grand Theatre is a community-based historical theatre dedicated to enhancing cultural life in North Central Kansas.
